Namaste! These special bingo cards are a perfect way to celebrate the diverse country of India.

Printing the Cards

Begin by printing up to 40 different cards. For reusable cards, print on heavy card stock and provide plastic or paper markers. For disposable cards, where players use marking pens or bingo daubers to mark their cards, simply print on regular paper.

About the Cards

The B-I-N-G-O across the top of each card has been replaced with I-N-D-I-A. An Indian elephant, a map of India, and a woman dressed in Indian attire adorn the top of the card, and the Taj Mahal is in the center “free” space.

How to Play

• Use your standard bingo balls and setup.
• Select one ball at a time and announce the letter and number, substituting I for B, N for I, D for N,
  I for G, and A for O.
  
  Note: Before the game begins, point out to players that they will need to scan down two columns when “I” numbers are called. Lower numbers (1–15) are in the first I column, and higher numbers (46–60) are in the second I column.
  
  Tip: Make yourself a “cheat sheet” like the one below for easy reference.

Don't Say "Bingo!"

Instead of “Bingo,” ask players to call out “India” or “Land of Spices” when they think they have a winning card. If players forget and shout “Bingo!” their bingo does not count.

Use your regular bingo markers or print a sheet of ornate Indian design markers for each player. Cut them out along the solid lines, and your markers are ready. For heavier markers, print on heavyweight paper (110 lb.) or card stock. Alternatively, glue the sheets to a piece of poster board. (Spray glue works best.) For thicker markers that are easier to pick up, glue the sheets to foam board or thick cardboard before cutting with a craft knife.

For Prizes

Hand out Marie Gold biscuits, elephant key chains, and elephant picture frames. Another option is Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate Bars because they are popular in India.
